Prognostic value of the plasminogen activation system in patients with gastric carcinoma.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Prognostic implications of overexpression of the HER-2 gene in nonsmall cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) are a matter of controversy. Many conflicting results have been reported from different laboratories. METHODS:A metaanalysis of published studies was performed for this quantitative review of the effects of H...
